Just a general update to this cob bed, it held up for around a year but because it was not covered it did erode from the the rainy weather where I live. It was a wonderful experience and a lot of hard work so my recommendation is to put in the extra work to make it last. Thanks for watching :)

I'm guessing a dry stacked stone wall would have been a better option for the raised bed.

Nice video. Thanks. Would you mind posting an update after it's been through a winter, and maybe a bunch of rain. I've been told cob wouldn't hold up to rain.

Yeah if it doesn’t have a roof on it it will erode. But with a proper roof, it will last centuries.

You can waterproof cob by plastering it or coating it with linseed oil.

Very late reply, but yes the rain eroded the cob as I did not do the proper protection techniques.

Would love to see if this really lasts or worth the time, logs work well for raised beds with less work, infact, I have a wonderful sweet potato raised bed with logs, including the bark originally, as the walls. Don't know if mud walls will work, one of the reasons you have to build a 2-3 foot tall stone wall to build your cob house walls on top of is to keep the water, and water splash, off the cob so it doesn't dissolve away, so it will be interesting to see if the water doesn't dissolve the mud walls to this raised bed. Thinking of dry ground and how if it rains it does re-soften the dirt and turns it into mud...

Melissa Williamson so far it's held up well to the rain but it's only November :) a thicker wall would probably work better with a lime wash but i never got around to doing that. I was thinking maybe during the dry season I would add some bulk to it and lime wash it! Thanks for watching!

Seems like an incredible amount of work, and for what purpose really? Why would this be so much better than merely mounding the soil and having a soft side bed?

Wow!! That must've been incredibly satisfying to complete. You should be really proud of yourself. Well done! How's it holding up years later? Considering doing this myself, but higher, as my knees and back won't cooperate with me much longer, but I could never give up growing.

It held up for about a year, however I did not put a cover over it or do anything to protect the cob. Very rainy where I live and it needed some extra protection. Lesson learned.

There are cob buildings that last many centuries. That means that it is better than cement! Maybe it takes much longer to cure before putting it to use. I wonder if you would modify your experiment to make it last longer. If it works, you don't have to repair it!
